Join the Smushkins, a whimsical family on a quest for the perfect home. They dream of a place with light, a big table, an apple tree, and endless fun. But what truly makes a house a home? Discover their charming journey as they explore what it means to belong. With playful adventures and heartwarming moments, this delightful tale invites readers to ponder the essence of family and home. Will the Smushkins find their dream house, or is the real treasure the journey itself?

From the publisher

What if you mixed the gentle spirit of Lucy Cousins’s Maisy with the offbeat world of the Moomins? Meet the Smushkins, a family of characters that toddlers will find irresistible. The Smushkins are looking for a house, but what makes a good house for the Smushkins? They all agree: there must be lots of light, a big table everyone can sit on to look out the window, and an apple tree for making pies. Oh, and a playground, puddles to jump in, an ice cream cart, and so much more! But most of all, a good house for the Smushkins is a house full of Smushkins! Kicking off a delightful concept board book series, this boldly illustrated, giftable picture book introduces a family of characters so adorable, so goofy, and so lovable that readers of all ages can’t help but feel that they’ve known them forever.
